Fast Checkout (Snel Bestellen)

Introduction

Fast Checkout also known as Snel Bestellen is an iDEAL 2.0 feature where a merchant (you) can request the Billing and Invoice Address data from a customer when they pay using iDEAL. This functionality allows for a faster (guest) checkout since the customer does not have to enter their details in your checkout. Instead an iDEAL Snel Bestellen button can be used as part of the guest checkout. Once a customer has paid using iDEAL Fast Checkout the requested information will become available in the iDEAL transaction response in the 'consumer' object.

To start using iDEAL Fast Checkout you'll need to add an additional object in the request body when creating an iDEAL transaction. This object is called checkout. The object contains the following fields:

  checkout: {
    shippingCost: 100,
    requestedDetails: {
      debtorContactDetails: {
        firstName: false,
        lastName: false,
        phoneNumber: false,
        email: false
      },
      shippingAddress: false,
      invoiceAddress: false
    }
  }

To request certain information you simply have to send in true for the value you'd like to receive. This will inform the consumer when they check out in the iDEAL process.

For fast checkout you must select at least 1 element to be requested from the consumer. For GDPR there are requirements to only request data that you actually need.
